Film Description

An uplifting and culturally vibrant film on the universal themes of family, love, generational difference and culture clash, The Namesake sees the American-born son of Indian immigrants trying to fit in with his fellow New Yorkers, but eventually learning to appreciate his parent's traditional values.

Like her previous films Vanity Fair and Monsoon Wedding, Mira Nair's The Namesake is a lush, beautiful film bursting with rich colour and visual texture. It is based on the bestselling book by Jhumpa Lahiri.
